Hi Hal.

I like your idea about making that last 3- or 4-inch piece easily detachable. I had been thinking of using a dowel and glue to make a strong permanent attachment. I've already drilled the hole for the dowel in the "headstock" (or should I call it the "tailstock" -- the part with the three tuners). Maybe I can still rig-up something that will work and can be deached. I'll have to give it some more thought. Thanks for the idea.

I think a 4" noter or slide might be a bit cumbersome. Maybe a small bow. Just kidding. I have no experience using a bow, and it would have to be quite short and stout to work well at the bottom of my cane.

Looks good, Rand!  How about a detachable support at the bottom?  You could unscrew it when you sit down and use it as a slide or noter.
